The @cyclinguk.bsky.social #GlowRides were fun but this debate is about the serious reason behind them. Ask your MP to take the issue of women’s safety seriously and go along! action.cyclinguk.org/page/182014/...

Proposals in the new planning application for the Roaring Meg retail park would force people cycling to dismount and walk when they leave the Monkswood Way cycleway (a popular entrance/exit). We're encouraging our network to object to this application to show that cycling access must be improved!

"Not a Caribbean sea." (the crochet yarn colour is Caribbean Sea, but the background is... Harris, Outer Hebrides) #UKTravel #FlightFree2025

On #ShowYourStripesDay a reminder that #ThisMachineFightsClimateChange The crochet scarf shows UK temperature data for the last 140 years from @edhawkins.org www.showyourstripes.info
A utility cycle with front carrier and shopping panniers stands in front of a wooden fence in a park where a crochet scarf showing climate data is hung.

We love community art, but we have serious concerns about the location of a new sculpture at a key shared use path connecting the bus interchange with #Stevenage town centre. Our campaigners have marked the spot for the proposed position of a new sculpture that is 2.1m high and 1.2m wide. 1/3
